Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) is a global pollutant. When TBBPA is absorbed by the body through various routes, it can have a wide range of harmful effects on the body. Green tea polyphenols (GTPs) can act as antioxidants, resisting the toxic effects of TBBPA on animals. The effects and mechanisms of GTP and TBBPA on oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis in the mouse lung are unknown. Therefore, we established in vivo and in vitro models of TBBPA exposure and GTP antagonism using C57 mice and A549 cells and examined the expression of factors related to oxidative stress, autophagy, inflammation and apoptosis. The results of the study showed that the increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels after TBBPA exposure decreased the expression of autophagy-related factors Beclin1, LC3-II, ATG3, ATG5, ATG7 and ATG12 and increased the expression of p62; oxidative stress inhibits autophagy levels. The increased expression of the pro-inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α decreased the expression of the anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 and activation of the NF-κB p65/TNF-α pathway. The increased expression of Bax, caspase-3, caspase-7 and caspase-9 and the decreased expression of Bcl-2 activate apoptosis-related pathways. The addition of GTP attenuated oxidative stress levels, restored autophagy inhibition and reduced the inflammation and apoptosis levels. Our results suggest that GTP can attenuate the toxic effects of TBBPA by modulating ROS, reducing oxidative stress levels, increasing autophagy and attenuating inflammation and apoptosis in mouse lung and A549 cells. These results provide fundamental information for exploring the antioxidant mechanism of GTP and further for studying the toxic effects of TBBPA.
